Rashaverak LQ Newbie Registered: Mar 2001 Location: Middle Island, NY Posts: 4 Rep:	I love Linux. I love the graphics, the sound and the refinement of the system. I have no problem using 2 different OS's, I love learning new languages, and I have the time to learn the little shortcuts and tricks I learned in Win98. I still need Win98 for work, so I dual-boot. When I had Linux Mandrake 7.0, BootMagic allowed a single graphical logon, and I disabled LiLo in the boot manager; this way, BootMagic directly booted Win98 OR Linux. Now I have Linux Mandrake 7.2, and at first, LiLo popped up after BootMagic. After disabling LiLo, GRUB appeared and the redundancy continued. How can I eliminate this extra boot step, disable LiLo AND GRUB, and use only BootMagic for my dual booting needs?
